Guest Hosts: Elaine Ramshaw & Sara Santiago
Honk! Start rubbing goose eggs on your head, it's another episode, covering this strange story, one of Barks' few adventure comics that passes the Bechdel Test! It's got everything, Magica DeSpell, Ratface, the Beagle Boys, and a character that's a clear stand-in for Little Bo-Peep (?!).

Get ready to revisit another appearance of Magica DeSpell! I contend this may be the MOST Magica of all her appearances. Join us, as we discuss the story that may have the greatest Magica sequence of all time!

88 - the Case of the Sticky Money
Guest Host: Geoff Moses {aka GeoX, of Duck Comics Revue}
Grab an ice cream soda, and join us, listeners, as we discuss this zany, Beagle-focused Barks story! This early 60s mystery is slight, but still great fun.

87 - the Status Seeker
Guest Host: Bucket Think Tank |
Listeners, if you are looking for a podcast that can also act as a status symbol, well...that would be pretty weird. But this is a great episode, where we get to talk about the concept of status, compare this story to its Ducktales adaptation and more!
Barks Remarks is a podcast exploring the adventure stories of Donald Duck/Uncle Scrooge comics legend Carl Barks, in chronological order.
My guest hosts and I discuss the stories, their cultural background, and how they hold up today.
